Answer "yes" or "no"? What is this? A deposition? It all depends on what your definition of "is" is? |

No. In a deposition we let you talk as long and as winding as you'd care to go. It's when you're on the stand that we try and pin you down to yes or no.  |

I was taught there were 4 answers no matter what: yes, no, I don't know and I don't remember, whether a deposition or on the stand. And never ever ramble on.
And the last time I was involved in a legal matter, the lawyer became frustrated, threw his hands up in the air, and harshly told me that I was excused. And I'm sure you guys (and gals) would be very surprised by that fact, but it actually happened. |

That's what your lawyer will tell you. The opposing lawyer hopes your a motor mouth.

In order to compete with Evan in threads, RodKnock observed Evan's techniques, like his opinion is the only correct one, reiterating his opinion over and over again often rewording it slightly. RodKnock then began using Evan's techniques against him, mastering them and refining them. He then found the secret weapon, get Evan in a situation where he will break the rules and be banished forever. Now RodKnock just needs to be sure he does not fall for the secret weapon being used against him. So RodKnock is not just Evan's replacement, he has surpassed Evan in his Evan'ness. RodKnock is the super Evan.
Oh, and even though the thread is alloy blocks, RodKnock will pick up on other key phrases that can trigger a tangent. I must make some mental notes of this. Hmm, "cast iron block", "accurate replica", "taco bell", ...
Evan is dead, long live the new Evan!

It was me who brought in "accurate replica" to this thread, not Knockers (I think) 
Speaking for myself, I was answering fordracing65's claim that "nobody in a Kirkham is buying iron". While I believe that most KMP's probably have ally blocks, half of the KMP's I'm in touch with regularly are in fact iron. And my experience both on and off the forums is that the ally block KMP's are typically the billet parts/non paint cars, while the painted/iron block KMP's have bumped up their level of accurate bits and pieces. That's all - just my experience. Didn't mean to add any fuel to the fire.
Call them what you want, some are more accurate than others. Not introducing the word "real" anywhere here.
And no comment on performance because it varies greatly, but most ally blocks are hot rodded to a degree, so they probably will perform better than iron but that doesn't make ally better by stretch other than weight, really.
Talking about FE's here. SB's don't matter

Doesn't surprise me in the least. |
